[celinenyx]

Sweet romance between sensible characters that seem to care about each other. Would have been a 4 star read if Sally, the heroine, hadn't just quit her company in an off-hand sentence at the end of the story. She was shown to be ambitious and to really love her job and the company she built. Dismissing it like that, to me, felt like undermining her character, and implies that women can't be both a mother and a business-woman. Her love interest, Edward, who owns a telecom company, doesn't seem to give up his business either by the end of the story.

Fun story despite the yucky double standard in the epilogue.
